Marginalized is he? No, Ham represents the thinking of the modern Christian, does he not? Teach the children to fear God. Teach them to hate government and anyone not following Ham's ideas. Ham wants this thing sued by public schools. Sorry, but I am not an atheist, and people like Ham disgust me. Using the Bible to make money. Seriously-that is not Christian. Nor is it superficial to call out these snake oil salesmen. Ham is little better than Cruz. And he thinks he can be President.

I bet he learned nothing except that there are a lot of 'atheists' in Twitter land. See, he'll use that to prove his point to his followers. So many problems in KY, and he chooses to spend how many millions building this thing?

The Ark never actually sailed anywhere; since the entire planet was flooded there was nowhere to go.The big question: where did all the water go? And, okay, how could the crew and the animals carry on with all that mud? And also, did Noah save penguins, polar bears, and kangaroos?

How can Ken Hamm and others of that persuasion get so stuck in the Old Testament? How can the 'salvation ark' move past a very elementary / primary introduction to being (or becoming) a Christian and learning the spiritual values that are intrinsic to holy scripture? Religiosity is frowned upon in the New Testament by the red words of Jesus.

Spiritual truths abound in biblical scriptural literature for those who seek to love others as they love themselves because they love something greater than themselves.

Why does it appear that the New Testament is simply discarded and/or discounted in favor of the exclusionary parts of the bible?

'Old Testament' is an oxymoron. Claiming Christ Jesus without the New Testament (Jesus as the son of God) makes at best a 'Jesus' philosophy (h/t Bill O'Reilly) that only rabidly supports grifting for gold in the name of God with guns.

How is righteous to lie on the Lord and/or lie for the Lord to increase one's own wealth, and domionist theocratic power over others who do not believe exactly as you believe?

It is easy to understand why so many of those raised in the Church, turn away from it when they watch what 'Christians' do to others over and over again in the name of God.

There's a LOT in the "bible" that is immoral, unethical, illegal, and just plain reprehensible for rational humans not basing their lives on Iron age mythology:

Stone your child to death for being "rebellious" Deut 21:18-21Kill people for working on the sabbath Exodus 35:2Slaughter men, women, children, and babies because they happen to be from some apostate tribe of Palestine? 1st Samuel 15:3

MURDERING BABIES TO PLEASE a "GOD"? How pro life is that God of the bible?

Plenty of gems in the new testament too like

Ephesians 6:5 where Paul of Tarsus writes "slaves must obey their masters in every respect". How does submission as a slave to rape, abuse, and forced obedience relate to the "eternal truth of god"?

Romans 1:32 where Paul insists that homosexuals deserve death, when Jesus himself never mentioned it one time? Should western countries adopt the same laws as Uganda where you can be killed for being gay or lesbian?

Ephesians 5:22 How about all the utter insanity making women into 3rd class citizens by forcing them into absolute slavish obedience to their husbands, even if that guy is an abusive bastard who beats them or rapes them?

The bible doesn't sound like the thoughts of an unfathomable powerful and all knowing being who created the universe. It sounds like the thoughts of men who lived in times where pillaging, slavery, subversion of women and all around barbaric behavior were the norm

Isn't this scam artist from Australia? He could not convince them to fund his money making scam, so now he came here. Taxpayers will be funding some of the cost. He insists all workers be Christians. What a yuuge waste of $$$, time and land. Don't we have enough home grown grifters, that we import people like THIS?

KY taxpayers will be funding this idiot's grifting to the tune of $75 million, but Matt Bevin wants to take more poor folk's health care away. All hail Gov. Bevin. This ark joke had been in some jeopardy for some time until Kim Davis's buddy in christ slimed his way into office.

Good luck with that in 2020, Mr. Ham. You will need ticket-buyers to make your payroll (and payroll taxes) and pay your utility bills, your insurance premiums, your grounds maintenance, etc. If you have any left over after your staggering expenses ~ you can advertise for more ticket-buyers. It will be expensive ferreting out those who will believe your bullshit.

I gather Ham thinks of himself as some sort of modern day Noah. Not even close. Noah built his ark without the benefit of machines and lumber yards deliveries. I have no doubt there is an audience for this sort of thing. Thousands upon thousands of impressionable school children will stand inside and believe a man and his family built this creation thousands of years ago without benefit of modern tools. A miracle indeed.

Christian Bristol Palin and her brood of bastard children will be the first to tour that farce. Todd will publicly thank Jeebus for saving his ass from his phantom accident. Track will apply for a job as a Christian armed security guard. Sarah will announce that she helped build that yuuge piece of shit.

I don't think Ham quite grasps the idea of social media and how it works. If you put something, anything, out for public consumption, expect opposing opinions and whatever you get. My son was into building models AGES ago, I think Ham's been huffing the glue far too long. I'm surprised no one laughed at the size of his Ark. He's looking to make money, he's a scammer, nothing more nothing less.

Secularists emphasize the judgment aspect of the Flood. Secularists believe in the Flood? Secularists believe there was judgement expressed in the form of a Flood? What does this guy think a Secularist is anyway? Sure are a lot of crazies out there. Religious schools teach this crap. One can only hope some of those educated by believers in this stuff get smart when they get out in the real world.
